Thank you for sharing.

I've decided to get back into Real Estate, and all the  information BG has to offer is awesome.

Each day I read up on topics that interest me the most, and I am learning a lot.

Hello Jose,

I'm not sure which market your looking for distressed properties. however, I am looking for distressed properties as well, I went under the FHA site. There you can find distress properties under: FHA, IRS, Marshall and etc.

I found a few, maybe you'll find what you'r looking for there.

Good Luck to you,

Be Safe

Craig,

Thank you for this post. BP is the only site that I have found to teach me how to start my real estate investing. I have also learned a lot listening to the podcasts, webinars, books and so on. 

I decided to join a meet-up group, and to my surprise they want me to join their community. However, I have to pay thousands of $$$ to join the community. At first I was excited about the community and all they offer. I was invited to webinars, received VIP passes to join their events, and BOOM they tired to encourage me to pay to join their company, as well as selling their programs to others.

Exactly what they offer me, I get the same information here at BP, and don't have to pay thousand of $$$ for it. I want to start my real estate investing immediately, but I've learned here, how to take on step at a time and get all the knowledge I need to be successful.

So "YES" thank you to BP for the knowledge and education that I am obtaining here.

Good Luck to you.

Stay Safe & Stay Healthy,

Hello Annie,

I am not an attorney, but I had a similar case with an attorney that was not returning my calls or emails. Every time I called his office, the receptionist said he wasn't in or on the phone. I mentioned that I would hold on, and they made excuses.

I did the following things: I wrote more than one letter, and mailed them certified. My goal was to have a paper trail. Sent several Emails (which he read). Requested a copy of my file. Since the the file and the papers belonged to me.

The last thing I did, was inform him by mail, email, and phone that I was going to file a grievance with the New York State Bar Grievance. I received a call from him that day.

Sometimes you have to do what needs to be done to get results.

I truly hope you are able to resolve your issues.

Good Luck,

Be Safe
